Beitar Jerusalem form and stats

Jerusalem was eliminated in the quarter-finals last season in the State Cup.

Beitar Jerusalem's struggle is real here at Teddi Malcha Stadium with only 13 points collected from 13 Ligat ha'Al games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 3-4-6.

Jerusalem's last game was hosting Hapoel Kfar Saba and winning 2-1. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Bnei Yehuda that ended 1-1.

The manager S. Drapić will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Ashdod in only two days.

Beitar Jerusalem are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 17 goals in 13 games. Jerusalem's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 19 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Ashdod form and stats

Ashdod was sent out of State Cup in the 8th round last season.

As the visiting team in Ligat ha'Al matches, Ashdod have produced an overall stat of 4-2-7 so far.

Ashdod are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 2-2 draw at Hapoel Haifa. A draw for Ashdod before that, at their own venue hosting Hapoel Hadera (1-1).

Drawing 2-2 against Hapoel Haifa after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager R. Ben Shimon needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result.

After this away game Ashdod return home for a Ligat ha'Al game against Beitar Jerusalem. That game is only two sleeps after this.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Ashdod have scored 15 goals in 13 league games away. Ashdod have conceded 18 goals in these away matches. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
